Not a great slate in the Big Ten this weekend. Guessing we see an end to the UCLA winning streak. Northwestern vs. Nebraska could be interesting just to see how the Huskers respond and to get another look at Northwestern before we play them in a few weeks.

Illinois at Washington could be a good game. Illinois is ranked but Washington is favored.

Wisconsin almost certainly gets blown out....only question is if they will end their scoreless streak or if they will get shutout for a 3rd week in a row.
 


(5-2) Cal +6.5 at (2-5) Va. Tech.
I feel like there's a lot of 5-2 teams this season that really could be legit very good.

Also complete ass.

And there are lots of teams would... could be both.

This year seems a little weirder around 5-2 records.

Huge games for standings with a bunch of 3-1 and 2-2 teams playing.
MN/IA winner to 4-1 (Both have Oregon in next 2 games)
Loser of Illinois/WA to 2-3.
NU and NE big swing game in standings
Rutgers at Purdue with to 0-4 teams.


Next week is a snooze fest with USC at Nebraska as the only quality game.

Didn't really look at it from the standings end.

Next week has a game that should have been great on paper PSU/OSU but obviously one of those teams hasn't quite lived up to they preseason hype this year :)
 

Cal continuing to prove that all you need to do to slow down their offense is provide pressure. Gophers coaching staff thought rushing 3 or 4 was the key while many of us were yelling at the TV.
 

1-6 Charlotte trying to upset the CFP playoff hopes of 6-1 North Texas on ESPN2 17-7 early in the 2nd
 






Horrible roughing the passer call on 3rd down in the red zone gave Cal a new set of downs and a TD on the next play. Extra point to tie the game.
 

Watching Cal stumble around with Va Tech makes my stomach turn. Why oh why do we have to have at least one game that defies reason, for a loss, every year?
 







How the Gophers could lose to Cal will occupy my brain for far too long.
Gotta move on.....Drake's first road game, late start, no DT......frustrating as hell because it was a winnable game but we didn't get it done.
